Lots of people will variously find any one platform unusable, at any given point. That you and others find X unusable isn't remarkable. For every person that mirrors your sentiment, there is someone who doesn't. And then the same

I'd never seek to deprive anyone of entertaining alien-life theories, but in general people wildly underestimate the factors that play into making Earth habitable. The only evidence for a habitable planet-type is the very precise condi

It's not difficult to ignore people. There are still a lot of (bluecheck) Leftists on X, and people successfully practice ignoring their version of terrible posting just as much as can be done in the other direction. Looking forward to

That makes no sense, in total.

Low quality responses aren't a part of a discussion: they're simply to be ignored. This is part and parcel for the internet, everywhere and for everyone. Unless one chooses not to ignore them, but that's their specific choice

Why? There's no free speech environment if it lacks spaces that upset you for existing. X's existence in the name of "freedom", even if you disagree with the characterization, in turn protects your free speech. In fact,

I believe that the appropriate response isn't to get upset about it, but to chalk it up to another article meant to mislead in the avalanche that are printed daily. I mean not only is the number meaningless without the context of relat

What are you trying to avoid, exactly? The cost? Consider that inner city schools are often massively over-funded per child to virtually no metrics benefit. My suggestion is to allocate some such (relatively minimal) funding earlier in life

Totally, I get it. With respect, I'd offer that you may be underestimating how literacy-avoidant the households of illiterate adults were likely to have been. Their parents were almost certainly to have been illiterate as well, or at l

I like the song, while simultaneously have a lengthy history of enthusiastically enjoying truly intolerable indie music. The too-cool-for-hit-pop shtick has been over for at least a decade. Hipster snark is stale, itself deeply uncool, and

Non-regular iron (and other divalent metal) chelation via oral supplement. Usually only when I'm feeling off, haven't done it in awhile, want some help with sleep, or have been eating a lot of fortified foods.

Wait until everyone hears about the iron fortification that takes real resolve to avoid when buying processed foods. Down to most that you will get at Whole Foods, at least after Amazon acquired it. I've been chelating iron for a few y

That was one of the worst written articles in terms of form, and the worst overall pitch, that I've read in a long time. It reminded me of a whiteboard of disconnected concepts that one might come up with when brainstorming for article

My prior response to you was completely neutral and meant to be helpful. Given that, I feel like you complaining that it made you feel as if you are "walking on eggshells" is meant to be manipulative toward getting me to concede y

Most pop science writers and readers don't understand the depth of factors involved in creating a habitable planet here. If they did, a simple chat with a better LLM would reveal that the possibility for life is far more rare than in t

Yes, really. It's okay to not know anything about how the global economy works or its history: each decade defining the next. But it isn't okay to twist that ignorance to become focus on a scapegoat of convenience. Led by The Atla

Your two statements logically conflict. I understand the article. Your first line is not what it says. See the "Legal Cost Collapse" subhead. In addition, logically LLM's will increasingly allow individuals to free themselves
